[Bug 499416] Re: Scanner not detected when connected

 

I reported the orignal bug based on my experience with a USB-
printer/scanner combo from Brother (DCP 165C), but although that printer
still works, I have not managed to get the scanner driver working again
since Maverick. My other scanner however, a USB Canon which is supported
by the open-source sane drivers rather than Brother's broken proprietary
stuff, shows the same behaviour though, now and then.

Title:
  Scanner not detected when connected

Status in Simple Scan:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Turning on my scanner when simple scan is already running does not
  make it show up in the list of scanners. Perhaps a "rescan devices"
  button can be added to the preferences if automatically detecting them
  isn't possible?
